Less than two weeks before the price goes up!  If you want
to learn about internationalizing applications for Windows,
this seminar will be very helpful.

          GLOBAL WINDOWS-BASED APPLICATIONS
                            WHY IT MATTERS
                    WHAT TECHNOLOGY TO USE
          HOW TO ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES AND DO IT

The Around the World with Windows Development Seminar
One day, ten topics, lunch, and a brain full of information	

Software developers all over North America are uncovering a
worldwide market for their Windows-based applications,
extending not just throughout Europe but also to Japan and
other Far East countries, and to the Middle East.
Attend a one-day seminar in the city closest to you, and see
presentations from the globalization team in Microsoft's
Developer Relations Group.  Many talks will focus on the
Far East, where new technologies have reduced the cost of
developing applications.

Plan of the day
If you are completely new to software internationalization,
show up at 8am for breakfast, when we'll review the basic
concepts before the main sessions begin.  The rest of you
can show up at 9am when we'll dive into a discussion of
software and hardware trends in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and
China.  We'll spend the rest of the morning talking about
the client desktop, the server platform, where this fits
Microsoft's international picture, and how to target a
global 32-bit application.

After a short lunch break, we'll talk about worldwide
software piracy issues (might give you indigestion, but
hey we warned you!)  Then we'll move on to a short recap
of Europe, other new emerging international areas, and
spend some time on Unicode and other character encoding
 methods.  We'll also show you how to work with Input
Method Editors (unless you prefer a 5,000 key keyboard),
and tools for creating foreign-language applications.
The day will end with information on how to get more
information.
